Folks, we needed to reach out directly.

Here's the good news: We have far more individual donations to our campaign this month than in the past few months. That’s a strong sign. It means that people are fired up about reelecting Joe and Kamala and defeating Donald Trump.

Here's the bad news: Our average donation in the last week has slipped by about $5. That's OK -- this campaign is all about people giving whatever they can afford at the moment. No donation is too small.

But what it means is that in order to hit our end-of-quarter fundraising goals (and scale our operation across the country), we either need LOTS AND LOTS more donations -- or we need people to give a little bit more.

Normally we ask someone making their first online donation to give just $10. Today, we have to ask you to do a little bit more, friend. Especially because Trump has locked up the Republican nomination.

Can President Biden count on you to contribute $25 to his campaign to make sure we can defeat Donald Trump and defend the White House? Every donation matters. It will all add up fast when we're all chipping in.

Thank you in advance. Let us assure you it means a lot to President Biden, and to our chances.
